Kaizen or CANI is constant and never-ending improvement. This should be one of the foundation stones of your philosophy. (The alternative is hopelessness). Continually raise your standards. Once you get 60%, aim next time for 66% or 70%, then 75% and so on. Don't stop at 100%. Look frequently at your own beliefs. Review them daily and cultivate only the empowering ones. Don't be content with just being a dreamer saying "It would be great to ..." and then stop. Look realistically at the issue and ask yourself "What would it take to..." and go and figure out for yourself how to achieve the goals you set for yourself then JUST DO IT !
It is not good enough to just know what to do, you must DO what you know you should do. Life is a practical course. Live it, don't just study it.

85. Setting Your Standards
If you don't set a baseline standard for what you'll accept in your life, you'll find it easy to slip into attitudes and behaviours for a quality of life that is far below what you deserve. A good place to start is to list all your values and then sort them by priority. E.g. do you value Love more than Friendship or Wealth etc. ?

79. Standards
Regularly raise your standards. Change what you demand of yourself. This is the practice of kaizen or C.A.N.I. - constant and never-ending imptovement. By making tiny improvements every day,(1% or less), you will over time make huge changes. It is well worth while.You will also need to change your beliefs in order to support your new standards.
